A Seymour special, under date April 8,
relates as follows: At an early hour this
morning, as the east bound passenger
train was entering Seymour, the chair
car. which was heavily loaded, known as
''Adelina Patti, was discovered to be on
fire. Instantaneously an exciting and
horrifying scene followed. but the great
presence Of mind exercised by l.. b.
Westbrook, of Newton, Iowa, one of the
passengers. in grasping the automatic air
brake cord and stopping the entire train,
can never be told, as the burning Car was
f;ied with sleeping women and children
and in helpless condition. Fortunately
all escaped unhurt, but wraps, grips, etc,
and the newly equipped car were COM
plctely destroyed. The large sleeping
car In the rear was left standing on the
track well guarded from the approach Of
any coming train. The origin Of the fire
was from the heater.
1t seems that Prof. Leigh hunt, former

igence, has called down upon his head a
storm of Indignation from the women,
and more especially the many in Des
Moines, with whom he was quite favor

paper, to the Acknowledgement of Wash.
ington Territory women. During his
residence in Dcs Moines, he was out
spoken as favoring women SUFFRAGE, and
his change at time when his influence
might effect the result in that territory is
source of sore irritation to the suf

taken the young Prof" to task quite
vigorously.

We cannot see much difference between sell

perhaps more degrading than being marched,
In striped suit, into furniture shop every
morning for a few years, and as personal van
ity is usually the only tender spot left on the

DUN,s TRADE REVIEW.
The Past Week an Unusually Active
One I'm the West.


ONE I'm the West.
NEW YORK, May 6,-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S. weekly trade review says: The
feature of business reports for the past
week is the enormous increase reported
at many western points. In that sec
ton the Interstate act, though check
ing trade at some important points,
seems to have produced a feeling Of
extraordinary confidence in much
larger number of towns. The other
causes are particularly speculation in
real estate, and the activity in building
contributed to swell transactions sur
prisingly. at Cincinnati the elearings
show an increase of 80 per cent over
last year; at st. EMis 16 per cent.
Memphis, st. Joseph and Peoria ex-
ceeding SO per cent; Indianapolis and
Denver nearly SO per cent; Omaha 1O2
per cent and Wichita ITO per cent.
Apart from land trading and new
building other business has been re-
markedly active throughout that re-
gion. Denver. noted Increase in the
large output Of -four; Cleveland, Gin
cinnati and Milwaukee, distinct inn
provements in trade and collections
and the supply of money seems every
where ample. At Memphis the activ-
ity noted is mainly in real estate and
building. Eastern cities do not find a
corresponding improvement in trade.
At Philadelphia exchanges show a
| little increase. Large amounts of cap
ital are going thence to the west on
mortgage loans. The boot and shoe
business still improves, but wooden
manufacture is depressed by slow de-
mand for goods, and several New Eng
| land mills have stopped or reduced the
working time. The high prices being
paid for new wool In the west
1t is claimed, will make
| profitable manufacture impossible fol
many. The dry goods market is quiet

the grocery trade there is much com

railroads for April 50 far show an ay

NEW YORK, May "a Boston spe-
cial to the Times says the annual re-
port Of the Atchison, Topeka s. Santa
Fe railroad will be an unusually in
teresting document. The Atchison,
has laid out for itself extensive new
fields OF railroad construction toward
the west and southwest. Leaving
Ness, in the central part of Kansas,
an extension is built across the prai-
rieS of western Kansas and easter Col
orado for from 800 to 400 miles to
Colorado Springs. From Kiowa one
of the termini in Southern Kansas on
the Indian Territory frontier of the
Kansas line it is proposed to cross the
Indian Territory, Northwestern Texas
over the Llano EStacadO and the
southwestern part of New Mexico, al
most on an air line to Ell Paso. This
prospective line, which is at least 900
miles long, will effect saving of more
than that distance in passing from
Missouri river points to the Mexican
frontier, and the building of it will
bring Ell Paso at least 800 miles near
or the Missouri river and Offset the
advantages of distances claimed by
the Atchison's formidable rival, the
Mexican National. The construction
Of short branch will thus give Ari-
iona new and independent line from
